Shareholder Dividends

The UBE Group recognizes that it has a primary responsibility to pay dividends to shareholders, and has made it a basic policy to pay dividends in accordance with Company earnings. At the same time, the UBE Group places a major emphasis on increasing internal reserves for the sake of future business expansion, in order to secure medium- and long-range profits for shareholders. Dividends are determined by comprehensively taking all of these factors into account.
